68 Practical Stitches – Applications
Manual Darning
TIP
Thread breaks
If thread breakage is a problem, it
could be that the hoop is not being
moved smoothly.
Stitch:
Neddle:
Thread:
Feed dog:
Presser foot:
Straight stitch No. 1
size and type suitable for the fabric selected
lightweight darning thread
down (darning position)
Darning foot No. 9 (optional accessory)
Manual Darning
darning holes or worn areas
replaces threads with the lengthwise and the
crosswise grains in all fabrics
Preparation
stretch fabric into darning hoop (optional acces-
sory) to prevent distortion
use of the slide-on table is recommended
Sewing
move the darning hoop smoothly by hand
work from left to right without using pressure
when changing direction on top and on bottom,
move in curves (avoid points as this prevents
holes and thread breakage)
work in different length so that the thread is
«lost» in the fabric
1. Stitch Over the Hole
sew the first rows to cover the hole (not too
close, sewing beyond the worn area)
work the rows in irregular lengths
turn work by a quarter turn – 90°
2. Cover the First Rows
sew over the first rows – not too close for a soft
finish
turn work by a half turn –180°
3. Complete Darning
loosely and in same direction as 2nd rows
Note:
Place suitable material
under a large area.
TIP
Poor stitch formation
if the thread is lying on the right
side of the fabric, the hoop is
being moved too quickly
if there are knots on the wrong
side of the fabric, the hoop is
being moved too slowly
